In a nutshell, this is a great value for users that want “average” 8 megapixel picture quality but way above average video capture in a tiny ultra compact camera.

But if image quality is paramount and you don’t need decent video capture, then Canon or Panasonic ultra compact cameras are smarter choices. But compared to Casio Exilim cameras, other cameras’ “Motion JPEG” video capture eats up space like crazy and is usually limited to 640×480.
